Orb only needs to run on a local windows computer to listen to our own mp3's or XM or Sirius.

If you want to listen to internet streaming with orb you do not need to have the client running.

Just paste the URL of the stream in to your orb internet radio favorites. Then log in to mycast.orb.com on your iphone to listen.

You need to find the url to the stream. Not the url to the radio station flash player. I use a window program called url helper to get the actual stream url's for me.

Also, clear channel streams will not work. They set a token so you have to use their player, which is flash and does not run on the iphone.
